One day, Song Shuhang was suddenly added to a chat group with many seniors that suffered from chuuni disease. The people inside the group would call each other ‘Fellow Daoist’ and had all different kinds of titles: Palace Master, Cave Lord, True Monarch, Immortal Master, etc. Even the pet of the founder of the group that had run away from home was called ‘monster dog’. They would talk all day about pill refining, exploring ancient ruins, or share their experience on techniques. However, after lurking inside the group for a while, he discovered that not all was what it seemed...
The Sobbing Old Man only wanted a single thing––the complete ❮Tome of Never-Ending Tears❯.
Song Shuhang remembered that the first time he'd seen the Sobbing Old Man was in space right outside the gate of the 'Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion'.
At that time, the Sobbing Old Man was guarding the gate, hoping to enter the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion and become their disciple. If he couldn't become a disciple, then he would just become a supporting or external elder. In any case, as long as he was able to gain access to the complete version of the ❮Tome of Never-Ending Tears❯, swearing loyalty to the pavilion wouldn't be a problem.
Normally speaking, a powerful loose cultivator of the Spiritual Emperor rank such as the Sobbing Old Man wouldn't be refused by any sect that he wholeheartedly desired to join.
